Convert DataRowCollection to IEnumerable

Question

I would like to do something like this in .NET 3.5. What\'s the quickest way?

IEnumerable collection = 
    TypedDataSet.TypedTableBase

        

Answer 1

Assuming you're using .NET 4.0, which introduces covariance:

// Presumably your table is of some type deriving from TypedTableBase,
// where T is an auto-generated type deriving from DataRow.
IEnumerable collection = myTypedTable;

The table type itself implements IEnumerable where T : DataRow.

Otherwise:

IEnumerable collection = myTypedTable.Cast();
